Seeing as I finished DH’s Big Mexiko socks, and my Sick<\/s> Sock Stash is reaching rather large proportions, I decided to knit myself some more socks. Mind you, SixSox next sock starts tomorrow, so I should probably wait for that, but common sense doesn’t apply to knitting \ud83d\ude42
\nI have been inspired by Sandy’s<\/a> sock knitting adventures, and have decided upon the Friday Harbor socks from Knitting On The Road<\/a>, which was kindly gifted to me by Jill<\/a>.
\nTo make these socks, I’m using Mountain Colors Bearfoot in Crazy Woman.

\nThe colours are darker than I thought they’d be when I ordered the yarn, but it is heavenly soft to touch and knit. It has 60% wool, 25% mohair and 15% nylon, and is fast becoming my favourite sock yarn \ud83d\ude42
\nMind you, I’ve only done 14 rows.
\nSatin is progressing s-l-o-w-l-y. I like the yarn, I like the pattern, but stockinette bores me to tears. I pick it up, knit a row (142 sts), get distracted, put it down and walk away. Must persevere! Must!
\nLike everyone who resides in this house, Twinkie likes chocolate. Well, I haven’t tried the budgie yet, but the budgie eats everything we do. At least, he tries.
\nSaying Twinkie likes chocolate is possibly the biggest understatement of the century. We used to get her little bunny chocolate drops at the pet store, and giveher a treat sometimes, but they don’t stock them anymore. I have been breaking off teensy teensy little pieces of Easter egg for her, and she then follows me around like a puppy.
\nWe got home from dancing last night, and Em ate an Easter Egg. She then laid on the floor to play with Twinky.
\nTwinky obviously could smell the chocolate, and went insane, trying to eat Emily.

\nEmily was giggling hysterically and the rabbit was hysterically trying to find the chocolate.
